Big Buck Down!

...... Well he isnt a monster
I was trying to hold out for a big buck all year. I passed quite a few deer during early season and couldnt get it done with the rifle. I told myself if I still had my tag during late archery, I would turn into a meet hunter and take the first deer to present me with a shot. Well, at about 740 this morning this guy presented me with a 30 yard broadside shot in the timber I was walking. I decided to let an arrow fly and I double lunged him and he ran 30 yards and tumbled. It is the smallest buck I have ever taken, but he tastes amazing! I needed the meat and knew if I took him, I would eat every ounce of meat. I am so thankful to be able to share this experience with my dad right by my side and I thank God for another day in the woods. I am glad I filled my tag and its time to start planning for next year!

"HOYT" why would you even consider shooting something else?

Definitely the smallest buck around. To be completely honest, when I shot, I thought he was a doe,
good thing it is an any deer unit. Im glad I got some meat in the freezer though.
And I took the time to sit down and score him and he came out to 1 1/8" P&Y.....

I was just going to say, did you even know it was a buck when you shot?

Long armed! There's no way that buck scores over 1 /16th"
He does have good mass though

"When my bow falls, so shall the world. When me heart ceases to pump blood to my body, it will all come crashing down. As a hunter, we are bound by duty, nay, bound by our very soul to this world. When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter
